I swear, it’s not like I purposely don’t write stuff here

Life has been eventful lately. Work is, well, work-like, but the major interruption in our life of late was last week when Loretta’s mother passed away.

So, Loretta and I spent an unscheduled week or so in Nebraska, with her family, driving a lot ( 980 miles in 7 days in the rental car ) and doing about as well as you can be when a parent passes away.

I, of course, am a geek, maybe even when I shouldn’t be. Like, for example, because I got the gps location of Mary’s grave, because someday we may want to be able to know exactly where it is. Maybe 20 or 30 years from now, when the cemetery has been expanded / changed / whatever, and my memory is starting to go, I suspect that with this piece of info we can find it again within about 15’ or so. That’s precision.

And, when I got back, I learn that my grandmother has had a stroke. It hasn’t been a good couple weeks for Loretta or myself, that’s my point.
